My companion is a bit fierce

In front of the majestic Prince Rong's Mansion in Yunzhou, the carriages were piled full of luggage, and the servants were going up and down, counting things, for fear of missing something.

The wind blowing from further north rolled up the fine yellow sand, covering the sky with a gray veil, blurring people's vision.

Rong Xu hugged his son, and a big man was crying with snot and tears: "Son, I'm going to Dingjing. The mountains are high and the water is far away. You have to take care of yourself. Remember to think of me, and I will do the same." Miss you."

The words were so nasty, the horse pulling the cart snorted and exhaled a cloud of white air, the staff behind King Rong all looked away in tacit understanding and looked at the gloomy sky in a daze.

Rong Jue looked at his father without blinking, Rong Xu hugged him too tightly, and it was windy and sandy in Mobei, he tried to push Rong Xu away for a little air gap, but was pressed by him instead Hold your arms tighter.

Rong Xu thought about it, but still felt uneasy. Although Emperor Tongxi was afraid of him, but his own son was in his hands, it was not up to him to decide what to do at that time, and he was far away, so it was beyond his reach.

"Those princes and nobles in Dingjing are all inactive. They are cowards. Even if they are princes, as long as they don't beat them to death, they can beat them to death. Father will support you."

Liu An, who was standing not far away, twitched the corners of his mouth when he heard this.

Rong Xu thought that no matter what, he had to set up the aura of their Prince Rong's mansion first, so he had to give Rong Jue a few more words.

"Ahem--" Seeing Rong Xu talking endlessly, Xie Liu, the number one staff member of Prince Rong's Mansion, finally couldn't help it anymore, but he coughed until his throat was dry and hoarse, but he still couldn't get Rong Xu. a look.

"My lord, it's getting late, if it drags on, the son will have to start tomorrow."

"Let me say a few more words, if it's too late, I might as well set off tomorrow, maybe the weather will be warmer tomorrow." Rong Xu waved his hands indifferently.

"..." Xie Liu was silent for a moment, and said: "If it drags on, I'm afraid Dingjing will not be able to wait."

Rong Jue slightly pushed Rong Xu away, put on a serious look, but said something not very serious: "Daddy, don't worry, if anyone dares to bully me when I go to Dingjing this time, I will beat him down first! "

"Hey," Rong Xu was very pleased, "It really is my son! He has my demeanor!"

Meng Wenbin and Meng Liren stood in front of the convoy, silently watching the scene.

Rong Xu valued Rong Jue more than his eyeballs, and this time he escorted Rong Jue to Dingjing, after thinking twice, he finally chose Meng and his son.

Meng Liren had a military post in Mobei, so he could only escort Rong Jue to the edge of the Ling River, and Meng Wenbin, who was temporarily unemployed, escorted Rong Jue to Dingjing.

Meng Wenbin grew up with Meng Liren in the military camp, the last time he tamed a horse he just wanted to show off, and he didn't want Rong Jue to come out and steal his limelight.

But he was not annoyed, as Rong Jue, the future King Rong, the object of his allegiance, the more capable he was, the happier he would be.

Rong Jue blew his whistle, and a snow-white falcon flew out from Prince Rong's mansion, landed firmly on the carriage, and tilted its head to look at him.

"Xiaobai, come here." This snow-white gyrfalcon was caught by Rong Xu while hunting, and he was specially asked to be domesticated. After Rong Jue matured, this gyrfalcon became Rong Jue's younger brother, and followed him to do all kinds of evil. .

This time it goes to Dingjing, and it will follow.

After Bai Lu counted her luggage, she stood aside and waited.Seeing Xie Liu standing behind Rong Xu and constantly winking at her, he paused, and took a step forward: "Your Highness, it's time to go."

The Rong family's father and son relied heavily on Bai Lu, and this time when Rong Jue went to Beijing, she also ordered her to follow.With Bai Lu's urging, Rong Xu was willing to let go.

"Father, I'm leaving." Rong Jue boarded the carriage and waved to Rong Xu.

The long whip broke through the air, the coachman drove off, and the horse galloped with hooves, raising a burst of yellow sand.

Looking at the motorcade going away, Xie Liu said: "Why is your lord so worried, if the princes in Ding capital are ambitious, they will all choose to win over His Royal Highness."

"Win?" Rong Xu snorted, "There are three sons today, and I only have one son. Some people must get it and some people can't."

Xie Liu smiled slightly: "Then it depends on the abilities of the princes."

"This kind of thing is dispensable in the first place. One more thing is worse than one less thing." Rong Xu saw clearly that Emperor Tong Xi only wanted Rong Jue to have a good relationship with the next emperor, otherwise he would not have wanted him Went to the Imperial College to study.

As for who will end up in that position, who knows?

"Even if you want Ah Jue to stand in line, what's the problem if you stand in the wrong place?" Seeing that Rong Jue's convoy had completely disappeared from sight, Rong Xu stretched his waist and turned back to the mansion, "As long as they still rely on Prince Rong's mansion, as long as Mo Bei is still there, The Prince Rong's Mansion is needed, no matter who sits in that position, they won't be able to move us!"

The sunshine in Mobei in spring is not dazzling, and the treetops along the way are a little green. The further south you go, the more lush the greenery is.The snow-white falcon flew across the sky like an arrow, and a long cry echoed in the vast world.

……

The boundary between Mobei and the hinterland of the Central Plains is the line of Lingjiang Juxialing.

Rong Jue and his party went to Linjiang Town on the border.Anzhou, where the town is located, is the southernmost state capital in Mobei. Linjiang Town is located on the Lingjiang River next to Juxia Ridge. No matter which way you go, you have to pass through here.

The Lingjiang River has already thawed in spring, and Liu An will rent a boat as soon as he arrives in Linjiang Town.

He said this, but he didn't move. He entered the palace when he was very young, and after so many years, he was already different from ordinary people.What's more, he was ordered to run a business this time, and such trivial matters had to be done by the subordinates.

When Liu An came to Mobei, he brought two young eunuchs with him. Hearing what he said, he cleverly ran out of the post station to rent a boat.

Rong Jue looked lazily at the door, Meng Li waved his hand, and the guards standing at the door immediately stopped the two young eunuchs.

Liu An looked unhappy: "General Meng, why is this?"

Meng Li said: "Eunuch Liu has made a decision without saying how we are going to go. Is it too disrespectful to our Highness?"

Liu An stared at Rong Jue, and gritted his back molars, he didn't expect Rong Jue to be so fussy.He was anxious to return to Dingjing to return to his command, so he naturally chose to take the water route. If he went to Juxia Ridge, it was just spring, the ice and snow had just melted, and the mud was hard to walk. He didn't know when he would go.

Rong Jue didn't even look at him, and just spoke to himself: "I've grown up so much, I haven't seen any high mountains yet, this time is just right, let's go to Juxialing."

fart!Liu An couldn't help but swear in his heart. Longxue Mountain in Mobei is the highest mountain in Daqi, and it is next to Yunguan in Mobei.As far as he knew, there were ethnic minorities in Mobei who regarded it as a sacred mountain, and Rong Xu paid attention to it, and went to inspect it many times.

But Juxialing is not so high, it is purely a mountain range with complicated mountain roads. Although an official road has already been opened, there are still bandits appearing from time to time. After the waterway of Lingjiang River was opened, it has long been abandoned.

As Rong Xu's son-in-law, Rong Jue also traveled with Rong Xu.Rong Xu's tour was to go through the entire Mobei, to visit the people's sentiments, especially the border inspection.In addition to this time, the important pass Yunguan will be inspected every three months.

There are no big rivers in Mobei, and it would be more credible to say that they have never seen a big river.

Liu An insisted: "His Royal Highness, it is safer to walk along the Lingjiang River. Juxia Ridge is not only difficult to walk, but also has bandits. General Meng can't get out of Mobei, so he should go back..."

"I'm seasick." Rong Jue said.

Liu An: "..."

It seems that we have to go to Juxialing.

If you rent a boat to go to Lingjiang, the carriage must be abandoned, but if you go to Juxialing, you can go all the way to Dingjing.

Rong Jue also has his own plans.Juxialing is a barrier in the Central Plains except for the Lingjiang River. Because of its steepness, few people live there, but few people know that Longxue Mountain is also a peak of Juxialing.

In fact, as long as you spread out the map of Daqi and observe carefully, you can find that there are many small peaks connecting intermittently between Longxue Mountain and Juxialing.Probably because it was too short, no one noticed it.The reason why Yunguan is easy to defend and difficult to attack is that there is a Long Snow Mountain behind it.Even if Yunguan is breached in a short period of time, there is still the natural barrier of Longxue Mountain, as long as they enter the secret tunnel of Longxue Mountain through the small mountain peak, they can regain Yunguan.

This is a secret passed down from generation to generation in the Rong Palace.Therefore, each generation of kings inspecting Mobei will also include Longxue Mountain.

Rong Jue insisted on going to Juxia Ridge because he wanted to see the mountain path of Juxia Ridge.Rong Xu hasn't been back to Dingjing to report on his work for a long time, the mountain road in Juxialing is difficult to walk, and there are few people. Although there are post stations, most of them are probably deserted.

The population of the Xiongnu has increased over the past few years. The land of the Xiongnu outside Mobei is dry and barren. There is not a few rains throughout the year, and even the grass does not grow.In recent years, as the population in the region has increased, it has gradually shown a trend of being overwhelmed.

Xie Liu predicted that there would be a big war within ten years, and if they concentrated their forces at that time, they would definitely be able to capture Yunguan.Having said that, the troops at other gates cannot be transferred, even if the men in Mobei are ambitious and heroic, they will enlist in the army to defend their homes and defend the country. Ridge, had to guard against.

Liu An frowned, and said in a sharp voice: "General Meng is the left general of Rong Wangfu in Mobei, and he is the second rank in the imperial court. He is not allowed to leave without a call. If he goes to Juxialing..." He looked at Meng Wenbin with doubts in his eyes , "I don't know if little general Meng can protect the son?"

Meng Wenbin has been with the army since he was a child. Although he has never been on the battlefield himself, he practiced martial arts every day and never failed a day.It can be said that although he does not have the talent of Rong Jue, he works hard enough.Hearing Liu An's question at this moment, he was a little angry.

Meng Liren cast a sideways glance at his son, beckoning him to be calm, and turned to Liu An, "Eunuch Liu, it's not your turn to comment on how my Mobei Army is doing."

Rong Jue said: "Juxia Ridge is the boundary between Mobei and the Central Plains, as long as General Meng does not leave Juxia Ridge, he is not considered to have left Mobei."

Liu An was stunned, he didn't expect Rong Jue to make such a rascal statement.Su Er came to his senses, I'm afraid Rong Jue's departure to Juxia Ridge was planned early in the morning, otherwise Rong Xu would not have ordered Meng's father and son to escort Rong Jue.This is the territory of Daqi, and they are all unarmed civilians. Meng Liren has led the army for many years and has rich experience in battle. He specially led a team of elite soldiers to escort Rong Jue to Beijing, and he also had to walk the Juxialing Mountain Road that had been abandoned for many years.

What the hell are they trying to do?What are your intentions?

Liu An's eyes widened twice suddenly, and the palms of his sleeves couldn't help but feel hot and humid, and the light-colored sleeves were soon stained dark.
